SA’s Miss Universe hopeful Natasha Joubert has extended her congratulations to the victor of this year’s pageant, Andrea Meza from Mexico, saying she is a “worthy winner”.
“Andrea is going to be a wonderful Miss Universe at a time when we need it the most,” she said.
Though Joubert was hoping to inherit the crown from the outgoing queen Zozibini Tunzi to secure coveted back-to-back wins for Mzansi, she was knocked out of the competition when the Top 21 were announced during the pageant’s finale on Sunday.
